Sine and cosine functions are used to define the remaining trigonometric functions as follows
On taking the reciprocal of sine and cosine function the cosecant and secant functions are defined
cscθ=1sinθ
secθ=1cosθ
On dividing sine by cosine function the tangent function is defined next by taking reciprocal of the tangent function the cotangent function is defined
tanθ=sinθcosθ
θ=cosθsinθ
